Hell Gate

Hell Gate
Hell gates are created to allow demons to travel from the demonic world into the human world. Sparda sealed the "True hell gate" 2000 years ago using the Yamato. Although not shown much in the series they are featured prominantly in Devil May Cry 4 where 3 "lesser hell gates" and one "true hell gate" are shown. The three lesser hell gates allow 3 different demons to travel into the human world. The first lesser gate allows Berial, the conqueror of the fire hell, into the human world. The next gate allows the demon Bael into the human world, along with his other kind. The last gate allows Echidna and her demon children into the human world. These gates are all closed by Dante who defeats the demons causing a pedestal on the Hell Gates to create a shining orb above them. Dante retrieves these orbs after defeating the demons, and these orbs give Dante new weapons to use in the game, namely the Pandora, Lucifer and Gilgamesh. The last "True Hell Gate" is opened by Agnus who uses the Yamato to unseal it, unleashing a seemingly unlimited amount of Demons onto Fortuna. After Dante battles and defeats Agnus in his Angelo Agnus form, he retrieves the Yamato from the Seal and proceeds to cut the giant hell gate in two with the one great cut from his brother's, Vergil, great sword.
